Qi Yuning and Lu Ze were packing their luggage for the army.
Lingling clung to Lu Ze's arms, sometimes wanting Lu Ze to hold her, sometimes wanting Qi Yuning to hold her, and was very noisy.
After packing their luggage, Qi Yuning and Lu Ze went to the dining hall. Today was the Dragon Boat Festival, and the food at Prince Qi's Mansion was very delicious.
When the third master and his wife of the Lu family learned that their two daughters refused to listen and wanted to go to the battlefield, they were so angry that they looked unhappy at the dinner table.
A Ping's face was also full of worry.
Today at the dinner table, Lu Yun was the only one who could eat without a care in the world.
Even Lingling no longer craved turtle legs or chicken legs.
Lu Yun was eating mutton by himself. Seeing that no one was eating, he said, "Why aren't you eating? Pingping, you're eating well now. Don't worry, I will take good care of you after Prince Qi leaves!"
Lu Ze looked at Lu Yun and said, "Aren't you coming with us?"
Lu Yun was so frightened that he dropped the mutton in his chopsticks. "I will go to the battlefield with you?"
Lu Ze nodded and said, "Brother Zhao and Brother Hui are younger than you and both went. Baoshuang and Baoxue are also going. Why aren't you going?"
Lu Yun walked up to Princess Pingrou and said, "Mother, you only have two sons. Wouldn't you be worried to death if both sons went to the battlefield? Besides, if I leave, who will take care of Pingping?"
Princess Pingrou looked at Lu Ze and said, "Ze'er, your brother..."
"He has to go!" Lu Ze said, "He became a monk without considering the consequences. He's already seventeen years old and irresponsible. He has to go to the battlefield to experience the hardships and hardship!"
Lu Yun touched his hair unconvincedly, "Brother, please don't burn your bridges. If I hadn't become a monk then, Qi Yuning would be my princess, your sister-in-law, and Lingling would be my daughter..."
Before he even uttered the word "son", he was met with murderous gazes from Qi Yu'an, Lu Ze, and Qi Yuning.
Lu Baozhu kicked Lu Yun and said, "Just go when I tell you to! You're bringing up all sorts of issues. You really want them to deal with you, right? This is Qi Yuning's territory!"
Lu Yun said, "But if I leave, who will take care of Pingping?"
Although Princess Pingrou was also worried about the lack of judgment on the swords on the battlefield, she was confident in Lu Ze because Lu Ze was raised by the old Duke since he was a child and was also calm. However, she was still worried about Lu Yun. But what Lu Ze said was right. Lu Yun needed to gain some experience.
"I will take care of your aunt."
Lu Yun said: "What do you mean Pingping is my aunt? She is just my grandfather's goddaughter, but she is not my aunt."
Qi Yu'an glanced at A Ping and said, "You didn't tell him that you are his biological aunt?"
Ah Ping said, "I told him, but he didn't believe it."
Lu Yun looked at everyone's expressions and asked Lu Ze, "Brother, is Pingping really my aunt?"
Lu Ze nodded and said, "Yeah."
Lu Yun covered his heart and looked at Ah Ping, full of disbelief, "How can you be my aunt?"
Ah Ping nodded and said, "I am your aunt, Your Majesty. Please take good care of him when you are away."
Qi Yu'an patted Ah Ping's hand and said, "Just rest assured and wait for the birth. If I'm not far from Beicheng by then, I'll try my best to come back and accompany you during the birth..."
Ah Ping shook her head and said, "No, no, you should take care of the important things. I'm fine. With Princess Pingrou here, I will give birth to the child safely. You don't have to worry too much about me."
After dinner, we finally have to say goodbye.
Qi Yuning changed into a neat riding outfit, mounted the red horse, and looked at Xiao Lingling at the gate of Prince Qi's Mansion, feeling reluctant to leave. Xiao Lingling, who was holding a lantern, was about to cry.
Lu Ze reached out and held Qi Yuning's hand, "Let's go."
Qi Yuning rode his horse to catch up with the team in front of him, not daring to look back to see if Lingling was crying.
Qi Yuning said to Lu Ze, "When I was little, I hated my mother. Why did other mothers stay at home to raise children, but my mother went to the battlefield even when she was pregnant with my sister? Why couldn't she stay with me?"
Qi Yuning pursed her lips and said, "I've heard many people say at banquets before that Prince Qi's wife is a shrew from a humble family. If she were a lady from an aristocratic family, how could she follow her husband to the battlefield and be so attached to him that she would even abandon her two children?"
Lu Ze said, "That's not the case."
Qi Yuning said calmly, "Some people also say that my mother is not a good mother or a good wife. As a woman, she should be managing the inner household affairs at home and not be seen in public with men. As the consort of the Prince of Qi's mansion, going to the military camp and living and eating with male soldiers is simply a disgrace to the consort."
Lu Ze said, "You don't have to listen to their nonsense."
Qi Yuning said, "When I was little, I hated my mother for this. Later, when I was a little more sensible, I knew that my mother was a heroine and a hero of the Great Sheng Dynasty. My mother cared about the world and had a chivalrous heart for the people of the Great Sheng Dynasty."
"My mother left me to go to the battlefield. I believe her. She must have been extremely reluctant to leave me, just like I am reluctant to leave Lingling now. But Beimo is coming with great force, and she needs to go to the battlefield to defend our Dasheng!
My mother has a great love in her heart, and she cares about the country and the people. It's not that my brother and I are unimportant, but our status is the same as the country and the people. May the world be peaceful and peaceful. What my parents have always wanted is peace for the world."
Seeing the tears in Qi Yuning's eyes, Lu Ze clasped his fingers with her and said, "Well, General Liu must have been extremely reluctant to leave you back then. She must have been even more reluctant to leave you than you are now, because she had endured the pain of ten months of pregnancy and had been with you for four years."
Qi Yuning gritted her teeth and held back her tears. She looked at the stars in the sky and said, "I have always been proud of my mother, and I want Lingling to be proud of me too."
